The story
The bass had been invited to brunch by the neighbor’s cat, who insisted on formalities. It arrived early, polished its scales, and practiced saying ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ in the mirror. When the cat finally appeared, it blinked slowly and said, ‘You’re early.’ The bass bowed, offered the teacup, and replied, ‘I didn’t want to be rude.’ The cat drank. The bass waited. No one spoke again until the toast was gone.
The brief
A largemouth bass stands upright on its tail in a sunlit kitchen, wearing a tiny bowtie and holding a teacup with both fins, its expression serene as steam curls from the cup and morning light falls across checkered floor tiles and a half-eaten slice of toast on the counter.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
